Part One
Ice cream, casserole, and flirting-with-Ayame oh my!
"So we're supposed to get Kioko's diary?" Xyryl dug her spoon into her chocolate ice cream, "How hard can that be?"
"It's probably really easy. We'll just sneak in and grab it." Sasuke accidentally flicked some whip cream on his nose, "And why are we here in the ice cream shop again?"
"Uh... because I like ice cream?"
"Whatever. Let's just get going."
"B-But what about the ice cream?!"
"Shut up about the ice cream!"
~`~
"There it is!" Xyryl pointed through a glass window at a pink journal. "Well, I guess we'll have to sneak in." She gave Sasuke a prodding stare.
Sasuke took out a small shuriken and started to drag it along the glass window. SCREEEECH!!! Hichigama, Kioko's older brother,could be seen coming into herroom, bending down to get a toy bear. Sasuke squinted his eyes and dragged the shuriken along the glass window more. SCREEEEECH!!! "WHO'S THERE?! I SWEAR, IT'S NOT HOW IT LOOKS LIKE!!!" Hichigama said from the inside of the room, clutching the toy bear. He sighed with relief. SCREEEEEECH!!! "STOP MESSING WITH ME!!!" Hichigama turned to the window. "Is anyone there?"
Silence.
Hichigama turned his back on the window and started to walk away. Sasuke was about to drag the shuriken on the window more, but... "If you start again, he'll be wondering why the sound keeps coming back."
More silence.
SCREEEEEECH!!!
"MOM!!! There's something weird going on in Kioko's bedroom!!!"
"MOM!!! There's something weird going on in Kioko's bedroom!!!"
"It's probably just your imagination, Hichi-bozu..."
Sasuke quickly dragged the shuriken to complete a circle. "Oh, that's a wonderful circle, Sasuke-san..." Xyryl began, "But have you ever thought of the fact that, um... EVEN OUR FEET CAN'T FIT IN THERE?!"
"Well, how else are we going to break this thing open?!"
"Hmm..."
"YES?"
"Can you bring your pet cat here?"
***
The cat shouted and screamed and yelled and howled and wailed and thrashed its paws around as Xyryl put it in front of a picture of Rock Lee. The shouting was so loud that the window broke in half. SUCCESS!!!"Yay!"
"My cat..." Sasuke immediately snatched his cat back and glared at Xyryl, "...you're even worse than Itachi."
"Hehe..." Xyryl climbed into Kioko's room and grabbed the pink diary. "REJOICE! We have her diary!"
Xyryl jumped back outside. "Well, after all our hard work, we have finally--"
"--thank you for the diary!" Kisame came running by and took the diary away. "I mean, she has the best green bean casserole recipe around!!!"
"...BAAAAAAKKKKAAAAAA!!!" Sasuke bonked Xyryl in the head, "We haven't only lost the diary, but the Akatsuki are here as well! This will be harder than I thought... we all know how rabid Kisame is about green bean casserole..."
"We do? Oh, uh, yes, WE DO!!!"
"...BAKA!!!"
~`~
Sasuke walked down the street with Xyryl by his side. "Hmm... if Kisame is here, then won't that mean that Itachi is here?"
"No, he has his yearly cold."
"But it's summer... anyways! Then that means that Hidan--"
"--he's busy with rituals."
"Then Tobi--"
"--he's busy with community services."
"Pein--"
"--he's working at McDonald's."
"How do you know all this stuff?" Xyryl asked, eyeing the ramen bar.
"Oh, let's just say..." Sasuke lowered his voice, "I have ways... "
"Whatever, I'm STARVING... We can talk about this while we eat ramen!" They both ran to the ramen bar to see... DEIDARA! He was talking with Ayame, with his right hand holding his chin up.
"Is it just me, or is he actually flirting with her?" Sasuke was just standing there.
"Holy creampuffs... it looks like it. We must save Ayame-san!!!" Sasuke followed her against his will.
Xyryl sat right next to Deidara, "Oh, HIIII Ayame-san!!! How are you doing?"
"I'm just talking with Deidara-san here."
"Ohhh, you mean Deidara-sensei?" Xyryl smiled, "He has a REAL talent for ear cleaning, you know!"
"GUWAH--!" Deidara's eyes widened and he was shaking, "I do NOT!"
"Ohhh," Xyryl said again, "he's also REAAAL good at nose picking!!! Why doesn't he pick yours?"
"Um... Xyryl-san..." Ayame started.
"But it doesn't stop there! He just loves to smell his--!"
Deidara immediately covered her mouth, but she was still blabbing away, "Mmmdspkpk.. mammmmekpphshsh!!!"
"Oh, she's just jo-- Ayame-san! Ayame, come back!!!" Deidara lowered his hands and looked at Xyryl, "Why'd you have to wreck it, un?"
"Give it to me." Xyryl held a hand out. Deidara looked at her with bewilderment, "What's happened to--" "Give it to me." "I've never remembered you acting like thi--" "GIVE IT TO ME!!!" "Give WHAT to you?"
"You KNOW what you're supposed to give to me."
Suddenly, Deidara buried his head in his hands, completely forgetting the fact that his mouths like to bite. He flinched when he felt the pain pierce through his forehead, "You were never so MEAN, UN! And STUPID!" Tears were gushing through his eyes.
Well, I'm sure you've all forgotten about Sasuke, huh? He's just busy watching these two converse with an odd look on his face that just says, "Awwwwkward..."
"Aww, you know how some things change! I mean, some things HAVEN'T changed. You still like to flirt with girls, and I still like to wreck your flirting time! So please, don't--"
"HELLO, PEOPLE!!! Have we forgotten the reason why we were here?!" Sasuke shouted out.
"Oh, yeah! Give Kioko's diary to me."
"Did you just say... Kioko?" Deidara's eyes were wide open now. Sasuke inched closer. Xyryl watched Deidara intently. "...SHE HAS THE BEST GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE RECIPE AROUND, UN!!!"
"I knooowwww! It's just so scrumptious and delicious and yummy and good and warm and hot-out-of-the oven and.."
"Mmhmm, un!"
Sasuke smacked his forehead. This was never going to work out with THESE idiots...
